The Chinese Calendar is officially called the NongLi (Farming Calendar), which is also known as the Chinese lunar calendar or traditional calendar.
The Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar which is based on exact astronomical observations of the longitude of the sun and the phases of the moon.
Today, although the People’s Republic of China uses the Gregorian calendar for civil purposes, the Chinese calendar is used for traditional activities in China and overseas Chinese communities. It determines the dates of traditional Chinese festivals, and is greatly used for people to find the auspicious days for weddings, moving, or beginning a business.
